HOW 70 SMOKE A CIGAR.

1. Never buy cheap cigars. There
IS no economy in it. If You can't
afford good cigars, smoke less and
enjoy your smoke. 1t is folly to
think little cigars are the best.
2. You cannot tell whether a
cigar is good or bad unless you light
it properly, that is, thoroughly. A
good cigar will not De much better
than a poor one if badly lighted.
3. Ifyour cigar goes ont, be sure
to blow through it as soon as possible,
so that when you light it there will
be no dead smoke in it.
4. Leave the ashes on your cigar
until they fall off. Your cigar will
burn straighter and taste sweeter, il
you don't knock the ashes off.
8. If you think smoking injurious
to your health, stop smoking in the
morning. A great many people
have stomachs out of order, and no
man ailing in that way can smoke
before or Immediately after break
fast. The best time to smoke is
after dinner and after supper, and
straight ahead until bed time.
Smoking would not hurt a baby if
this rule was adopted.
6. Never give anybody a light
from your cigar. Garry matches.
